Arabs in Spain

Arabs in Spain is a documentary by Jacques Madvo produced in 1984 and restored in 2017. This film highlights how Arab conquests brought and developed a rich civilization that influenced profoundly European and particularly Spain culture until nowadays. It is particularly stimulating review this body of work that has been produced ten years before the debate about the “clash of civilizations”.

The Jury appreciates that this documentary has been safeguarded and restored so that it is newly available as a testimony of a dialog between cultures.
